Getting the most from my Vid card

I have a recently bought a BFG 7800GS AGP of my mate, its six months old. My cpu is an AMD Athlon 3000XP, with 1 GB of PC3200 memory. Will Be getting the most out of this card, or is my CPU weak, could I do with more memory? Sorry if this is the wrong area of the forum.

That card would do a bit better with an Athlon64 or Core 2. The CPU you have is a good one, but it's a bit long in the tooth now, especially for games.
